Fully-Hyperlinked SGX Event Program Virtual Exhibition May 5th, 2021 https://www.uwstout.ehttps://www.uwstout.edu/academics/colleges -schools/school-art-design/sgx20 du/academics/colleges- 1 schools/school-art- The Stout Game Expo (SGX) is Western Wisconsin’s premier exhibition for student-created work in game design and development. At the end of every semester, SGX draws crowds of more than 500 students, parents, and professionals in the field, providing our students the opportunity to professionally exhibit their work and network. Like last Fall, the COVID- 19 pandemic has caused us to host an entirely virtual SGX. Projects are available for viewing and playing through your web browser. Now that it has reached the spring, the senior games are fully complete. As you browse the SGX website or click game titles in this digital program, we hope you will see the talent, work, and dedication of our students. If you have a few words of encouragement for our students, please feel free to like, comment, or share from our Facebook or Twitter pages.

  • 14 Apple Arcade Games to Play on Launch Day from Strategy to Action to Puzzle Games, Here’S Where You Should Head First
    APPLE MOBILE GAMING 11 14 Apple Arcade games to play on launch day From strategy to action to puzzle games, here’s where you should head first By Russ Frushtick @RussFrushtick Sep 19, 2019, 9:40am EDT Simogo Games Today’s launch of Apple Arcade might be overwhelming to some players. Subscribers who drop $4.99 a month get unlimited access to a large swath of games, and scrolling through the list can feel a bit like trying to find something good to watch on Netflix. The initial launch line-up includes over 50 games, but we’ve gone ahead and narrowed them down to 14 titles you’d do well to check out first. WHAT THE GOLF? Triband/The Label While there are plenty of thoughtful, story-driven games in the Apple Arcade collection, What the Golf? goes another way. What starts as a simple miniature golf game quickly evolves into a bizarre blend of physics-based chaos. One level might have you sliding an office chair around the course while another has you knocking full-sized buildings into the pin. The pick-up-and-play nature makes it an easy recommendation for your first dive into Apple Arcade. ASSEMBLE WITH CARE It makes sense that Apple would work with usTwo on an Apple Arcade release title. After all, the developer is known as one of the most successful mobile game makers ever, thanks to Monument Valley and its sequel. usTwo’s latest title, Assemble with Care, taps into humans’ love of taking things apart and putting them back together.

    The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play A dissertation presented to the faculty of the Scripps College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Todd L. Harper November 2010 © 2010 Todd L. Harper. All Rights Reserved. This dissertation titled The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play by TODD L. HARPER has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Mia L. Consalvo Associate Professor of Media Arts and Studies Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT HARPER, TODD L., Ph.D., November 2010, Mass Communications The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play (244 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Mia L. Consalvo This dissertation draws on feminist theory – specifically, performance and performativity – to explore how digital game players construct the game experience and social play. Scholarship in game studies has established the formal aspects of a game as being a combination of its rules and the fiction or narrative that contextualizes those rules. The question remains, how do the ways people play games influence what makes up a game, and how those players understand themselves as players and as social actors through the gaming experience? Taking a qualitative approach, this study explored players of fighting games: competitive games of one-on-one combat. Specifically, it combined observations at the Evolution fighting game tournament in July, 2009 and in-depth interviews with fighting game enthusiasts. In addition, three groups of college students with varying histories and experiences with games were observed playing both competitive and cooperative games together.

    “For when established identities become outworn or unfinished ones threaten to remain incomplete, special crises compel men to wage holy wars, by the cruellest means, against those who seem to question or threaten their unsafe ideological bases.” Erik Erikson (1956), “The Problem of Ego Identity”, p. 114 “In games it’s very difficult to portray complex human relationships. Likewise, in movies you often flit between action in various scenes. That’s very difficult to do in games, as you generally play a single character: if you switch, it breaks immersion. The fact that most games are first-person shooters today makes that clear. Stories in which the player doesn’t inhabit the main character are difficult for games to handle.” Hideo Kojima Simon Parkin (2014), “Hideo Kojima: ‘Metal Gear questions US dominance of the world”, The Guardian iii AGRADECIMENTOS Por começar quero desde já agradecer o constante e imprescindível apoio, compreensão, atenção e orientação dos Professores Jean Rabot e Clara Simães, sem os quais este trabalho não teria a fruição completa e correta.

  • CPR for the Arcade Culture a Case History on the Development of the Dance Dance Revolution Community
    CPR for the Arcade Culture A Case History on the Development of the Dance Dance Revolution Community Alexander Chan SUID 5075504 STS 145: History of Computer Game Design Stanford University March 16, 2004 Introduction Upon entering an arcade, you come across an unusual spectacle. Loud Japanese techno and a flashing neon glow pour out of the giant speakers and multicolored lights of an arcade console at the center of the room. Stranger than the flashy arcade cabinet is the sweaty teenager stomping on a metal platform in front of this machine, using his feet to vigorously press oversized arrows as the screen in front of him displays arrows scrolling upward. A growing group of people crowd around to watch this unusual game-play, cheering the player on. In large letters, the words “Dance Dance Revolution 3rd Mix” glow above the arcade machine. Most people who stumble upon a scene similar to this one would rarely believe that such a conceptually simple arcade game could foster an enormous nation-wide game community, both online and offline. Yet the rules of the game are deceptively simple. The players (one or two) must press the arrows on the platform (either up, down, left, or right) when the corresponding arrows on the screen reach the top, usually on beat with the techno/pop song being played. If the player doesn’t press the arrows on time, the song will quickly come to an end, and the machine will Arrows scrolling up a DDR screen ask for more quarters to continue play. Yet despite its simplicity, Dance Dance Revolution, or DDR for short, has helped create a giant player community in the United States, manifesting itself though various forms.

  • Creating Human-Like Fighting Game AI Through Planning
    Creating Human-like Fighting Game AI through Planning Roger Liu CMU-CS-17-128 December 2017 School of Computer Science Computer Science Department Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA Thesis Committee Maxim Likhachev, Chair Jessica Hodgins Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Copyright c 2017 Roger Liu ii Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Human-Computer Interaction, Game AI, Plan- ning, Human-Imitation, Fighting Games iii CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY Abstract Faculty Name Department or School Name Master of Science Creating Human-like Fighting Game AI through Planning by Roger LIU Games are a major testing ground for Artificial Intelligence. Though AI has be- come proficient at playing games such as Space Invaders, it behaves in a way that is distinctly artificial, lacking the human-like qualities of a real player. This human ele- ment is important in competitive multiplayer games, as a large part of the enjoyment comes from outwitting other human strategies. To address this issue, we investigate a novel AI technique that leverages planning and human demonstrations to create an opponent that exhibits desirable qualities of human play in the context of a fight- ing game. We introduce the idea of action-ds, which relate the action performed with the change in the game state. These action-ds are learned from human demon- strations and are used to help the AI plan out strategies to hit the opponent. We implement a simple fighting game called FG for the AI to compete in and provide it a human demonstration to learn from. The AI utilizes action-ds with other search techniques to emulate human behavior.
